The Kirkland Planning Commission held a meeting on Thursday, February 23rd to discuss the Houghton-Everest Neighborhood Center. Thanks to everyone who attended.

On the agenda were plans to re-zone the business district for up to five stories. The Central Houghton Neighborhood association has a great wrap-up. No sense duplicating their work, here’s a link to their post if you want to learn more:
